If you haven't read it, I highly recommend Traplines North by Stephen W. Meader. About a pair of Canadian brothers who run a winter trap line while their dad is recovering from being sick. Very good book takes place in the 1930s. Nonfiction.

I just finished it about a week ago. Lots of details to keep straight. But good.

Took place near Nakina, if memory serves me. It has been nearly 50 years since I read it.

It was mentioned on a post a couple weeks ago so I ordered it. Could hardly put it down once I started reading. Talk about some tough, hard working boys.

I too ordered a copy because of that post but haven't read it yet. Probably be the next one I read after I finish the one I'm on now.

Who or where do you order it?


I got myself a seniors' GPS.
Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination,
it tells me why I wanted to go there.
